Raina Telgemeier's #1 New York Times bestselling, Eisner Award-winning graphic memoir based on her childhood!
Raina just wants to be a normal sixth grader. But one night after Girl Scouts she trips and falls, severely injuring her two front teeth. What follows is a long and frustrating journey with on-again, off-again braces, surgery, embarrassing headgear, and even a retainer with fake teeth attached. And on top of all that, there's still more to deal with: a major earthquake, boy confusion, and friends who turn out to be not so friendly.

So this book I read a week after I got the news I was getting braces in a year! I was terrifyed! What if it hurt? I read this book and it made me feel SOOO much better! t the same time I was having friend drama just like Raina! Her friends were defiantly NOT true friends and this book made me relies my friends were treating me like a toy also. So I kept reading this book about a girl who stands up for herself and has the worst luck with teeth. ;) read it!
I`ve read this book at least a million times. This book is really good. it shows that even though something bad is happening now, something good will come out of it like getting braces and having better teeth than before. i love it soooooo much
This book is very good. I have met the author and she is truly an inspiration. I recommend this book to anyone with braces
I loved this book. Her friends were mean to her, like when they pulled her skirt down. They were always mean but Raina was nice and let them get away. During the sleepover, they tricked her and made her wear a tube top. The new friends she makes are really nice. I agree with aquamarine, it was surprising when I find out it was a real story. The main reason I read this book was to see what an autobiography is like in a graphic novel format.
I love this book, its about boys and true friends. I just had to buy it! What surprised me was the it was real. I hate the part when they boss Raina around.
This book is a biography comic book! It is fun. Rana's life get better and better. But I don't like the part when her skirts fell off! That was mean!! >-<
I DO NOT like this book. I LOVE it. I got it from the library, and loved it so much i HAD to buy it. what surprised me the most was that it was a true story. It is my favorite book ever. I would recommend it to girls, especially girls with braces and/or other orthodontics.
I love this book. I have read it 2 or 3 times and I absolutley loved it. It is sort of disgusting at times but really good.
i love this book read it 3 times i can relate to the book beacase i did not want anybody to make fun of me we i got braces
